Early the next morning, Qin Feng got dressed under the service of the maid, and after washing his face, he saw a young maid facing her palms and looking cold, looking at it strangely, and said with a smile: "Is it cold today?" How to freeze like a rabbit. ”

The young maid's face turned red and she lowered her head crampedly.

While the slightly older maid smoothed the folds on Qin Feng's clothes, she chuckled and said, "Young Master, don't you know how cold it is today, as soon as you push open the door, there is a white expanse outside. Moreover, this little girl still came from the south, and the butler saw that he looked like a sign and recruited him into the baron's palace to be a maid for you. ”

"Oh... No wonder," Qin Feng chuckled: "The winter in the north is very cold, you have to get used to it quickly, if it's really cold, just wear more clothes." ”

"Thank you, young master," the old maid said enviously when she saw the little maid's cramped and shy appearance.

"Thank you, young master..."The little maid's voice was like a mosquito, and she didn't dare to look at Qin Feng.

Nodding, Qin Feng didn't take this matter to heart, but it was very strange that there would be such a shy little maid.

Pushing open the door, a cold air rushed to the face, and there was a slight smell of blood in the cold wind, and the condensed snow and frost spread all over the town, looking like a light snow.

Located in the northern part of the empire, the town of Boer experienced a sharp drop in temperatures just over a month after the autumn harvest, followed by a frost period of more than six months. During this period, the entire north will be covered in snow, and the northerners call this period of time "bitter winter".

"It's really cold, if it weren't for the cold resistance of this body, he really couldn't stand it." Qin Feng shuddered and exhaled hot air.

"Young master," the butler stood outside the door wrapped in his coat, holding in his arms the account book he had never put down.

"The post-war situation has been counted?" Qin Feng asked as he walked.

"The gnolls are very poor, they don't even have formal weapons, so in the end we only collected a mess of weapons, including wooden clubs, axes, kitchen knives, sickles, and the like, but most of them have not been maintained and can no longer be used." The housekeeper walked behind Qin Feng, opened his personal account book, and said.

"The useless sticks and mallets are thrown away, and the axes, kitchen knives, etc., are melted down and cast into iron ingots and sold to the iron merchants, who don't care much about the quality anyway, as long as it's iron." Qin Feng said that he never thought that he would use these weapons, and after the Roman Youth Army was trained, the system would give them complete armor and weapons, and he still didn't look down on these.

"By the way," Qin Feng stopped and looked at the housekeeper, "How many warm clothes are there in the warehouse?" ”

"Winter" is coming, the whole north will be covered with snow, although the Roman youth army has the armor given by the system, but those armor is okay against the enemy's sword, and against the biting cold of the north, those armor will not use anything.

"There are only two hundred sets of clothes in the warehouse to protect against the cold," the butler also recognized the seriousness of the matter, as the territory used to be armed with only 200 men a year, and these clothes were often made at the beginning of the year. But this year, after the young master took over power, the military strength has increased greatly, and the clothes prepared earlier are not enough at all, not to mention that there are still a lot of homeless people in the territory.

Qin Feng paced back and forth, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "Did I ask those iron sellers to bring back a batch of animal skins before?" ”

In order to get more share of iron ore, the iron merchant used his greatest strength to exchange a lot of animal skins from the barbarians, and all these animal skins were bought by Qin Feng, and the price paid was only 500 catties of iron ore.

"There are 300 hundred animal skins," the butler seemed to have found the record, and then smiled bitterly, "However, young master, in order to add protection to the townspeople, these animal skins have been processed into leather armor by craftsmen. ”

"shit..."Qin Feng scolded secretly and said, "When will those iron dealers come back?" ”

"They've just been trading for a week, and I'm afraid they won't be back until seven days later."

"What about the grain merchants?" Qin Feng asked.

"Those southerners are very timid, I'm afraid that when they heard the gnolls attacking us, they would have run far away, and they didn't have the courage to come again for a while." The housekeeper smiled bitterly, he knew these people best as he often dealt with southerners.

The same is true for Qin Feng, although he has not had much contact with the southerners, but his subordinate Lowell, Will had lived in the south for a while before being recruited by the baron. Coupled with his previous contact with the two grain merchants in the south, what the steward said was probably right.

"Isn't there the hunter?" At this time, someone suddenly interjected.

"You are?" Qin Feng turned his head, looked at the submissive guard in front of him and asked, what he said just now.

"Young Master, my name is Amulle, and I am your bodyguard." The young man said respectfully.

"What did you say at the beginning? Say it again. ”

"Young master, it's a hunter, which hunters live in the mountains, I saw them selling animal skins in the bazaar."

"Oh, that's the people." The housekeeper thought about it, saw Qin Feng's somewhat confused look, and explained: "Actually, these hunters are migrated barbarians, they make a living by hunting in the mountains and forests, and they will go down the mountain every year to exchange supplies with the townspeople, so we all jokingly call them 'hunters'. ”

"Then they'll have a lot of fur, too." Qin Feng said that there are very many races in this world, although he inherited the memory of his predecessor, his predecessor was originally a guy who didn't like to study, and he didn't have much in his head.

"Yes, young master, they will go down the mountain every year before the winter comes, in exchange for enough salt, iron and grain for a year, calculate the time, just these few days." The housekeeper thought for a moment and said.

Qin Feng's heart suddenly brightened, looked at the guard who interjected, and said with a smile: "Butler, this matter will be left to you, you can teach him more, by the way, your name is Amule." He admired the guard who had solved his problem, and he was not stingy in training him.

"Ah......." Amul was at a loss, he didn't know why he interjected just now, he was looked at by Qin Feng at this time, and he didn't know what to say.

"The young master asked you something, answer quickly." The butler smiled and patted him on the head.

"Yes, thank you, young master." Amul hurriedly replied, a happy smile on his face. The knowledge inheritance of this world is basically monopolized by aristocrats and religions, and it is simply impossible for ordinary people to learn knowledge, so when this opportunity is placed in front of him, the only thing left in Amule's heart is excitement.

"Hehe...."Qin Feng smiled, patted Amul on the shoulder, and turned to walk away.

Amul stood up again under the envious eyes of his companions, and looked at Qin Feng's back respectfully until Qin Feng went out to leave.

"You will follow me in the future," the butler looked at Amul and said solemnly: "This is the opportunity given to you by the young master, and your achievements also represent the young master's vision, I don't want anyone to gossip about the young master because of you, you know?" ”

"Yes, sir." Amul replied respectfully.

The butler smiled with satisfaction. Time flies so fast, I seem to have been favored by the young master's grandfather like this, more than 40 years have passed in the blink of an eye, and a new batch of people has come up again!!
